En estas meditaciones que se presentan bajo la forma de cartas a su amigo Lucilio, Séneca, uno de los mayores exponentes del estoicismo, nos invita a un viaje de introspección y reflexión. Escritas en un momento de crisis política y personal, las misivas no solo tratan temas filosóficos como el paso del tiempo y la naturaleza del mundo, sino que ofrecen consejos prácticos sobre cómo vivir una vida serena y feliz, enfrentando la adversidad con entereza y sabiduría.

Einleitung: Die Magische Kraft des StoizismusIm hektischen und oft chaotischen Alltag des 21. Jahrhunderts sehnen sich viele von uns nach innerer Ruhe und Gelassenheit. Wir sind ständig gefordert, jonglieren zwischen beruflichen und privaten Verpflichtungen, sind von der Informationsflut der sozialen Medien überflutet und finden oft kaum Zeit, innezuhalten. Inmitten dieser modernen Herausforderungen erscheint eine alte Philosophie plötzlich wie ein Leuchtturm, der uns zeigt, wie wir inmitten des Sturms ruhig bleiben können: der Stoizismus.

This dialogue is a must-listen for anyone interested in ancient philosophy, cosmology, or metaphysics. Timaeus invites listeners to reflect on the deeper questions of life, existence, and the universe’s origins.

Sebastián's interest in philosophy started with his friends in college who at the time introduced philosophy to him by engaging in discussions of critical thought. With time he branched out learning about the philosophies of different cultures, only to end up back to where he started with his favorite philosopher. This small book captures just a glimpse of Socrates' impactful thoughts and life's work. He remains an emblem of wisdom and a pillar of philosophical inquiry, urging us all to live examined and thoughtful lives.

Las Meditaciones, Pensamientos o A sí mismo del emperador romano Marco Aurelio es una obra literaria constituida por una serie de reflexiones de este filósofo, aparentemente fuera del tiempo y sin cronología. Fue originalmente redactada en griego entre los años 170 y 180. La obra, en doce tomos, es única en su género, y parece recorrer los últimos años de la vida interior de este emperador.

Plutarch: Alexander is the essential companion to Plutarch's Caesar, the life paired with Alexander in Plutarch's Parallel Lives. This new English version of Alexander is followed by an Afterword about Plutarch’s Parallel Lives by the translator, Christopher Pelling, Emeritus Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford University.

The Discourses of Epictetus are a series of informal lectures by the Stoic philosopher Epictetus written down by his pupil Arrian around 108 AD. Four books out of an original eight are still extant. The philosophy of Epictetus is intensely practical.

Socrate va par les rues d'Athènes, interpellant ceux qu'il trouve sur son chemin : Connais-toi toi même ! Ne te soucie pas des richesses, cherche la vérité et deviens philosophe ! Ce n'est pas du goût des Athéniens. Au terme d'un procès, Socrate est condamné à boire la ciguë. Va-t-il s'enfuir ? Un philosophe doit-il craindre la mort ?

Does Plato matter? An ancient philosopher whose work has inspired and informed countless thinkers and poets across the centuries, his ideas are no longer taught as widely as they once were. But, as Angie Hobbs argues in this clear-sighted book, that is a mistake. If we want to understand the world we live in – from democracy, autocracy and fake news to celebrity, cancel culture and what money can and cannot do – there is no better place to start than Plato.

Despite all of the imperfections present throughout Ancient Mesopotamian legislation, these laws of the ancient world are a priceless treasure influencing the history of judicial science. In ancient Mesopotamia, a written set of laws adopted by a ruler or his kingdom was quickly established as the foundational governing document.

Ever wondered why a rich Athenian who died 2,400 years ago still dominates Western thought? Or why your professor keeps talking about invisible triangles and prisoners staring at shadows? "Plato's Cave: Philosophy's First Reality Show" is the hilarious guide to Plato you never knew you needed. In this irreverent takedown of philosophy's founding father, author Sophia Blackwell translates Plato's lofty ideas into actual human language while mercilessly mocking his metaphysical obsessions, aristocratic biases, and suspicious fondness for "perfect forms."

The Stoic philosopher Musonius Rufus was one of the most influential teachers of his era, imperial Rome, and his message still resonates with startling clarity today. Alongside Stoics like Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius, he emphasized ethics in action, displayed in all aspects of life. Merely learning philosophical doctrine and listening to lectures, they believed, will not do one any good unless one manages to interiorize the teachings and apply them to daily life.

The idea that our homes can communicate professional as well as personal identities may seem as new as the work-from-home revolution. But it was second nature to the ancient Romans, for whom the home was in many ways the center of public and private life. Roman authors saw infinite practical and symbolic value in houses, and they have much to say about them. How to Make a Home presents some of the best Roman writings on houses—from buying and selling to designing and decorating.

Ce texte d’Aristote prend la question du bonheur à bras-le-corps et ses réponses, directes et vertueuses, étonnent aujourd’hui encore.

Senecas "Von der Kürze des Lebens", verfasst im 1. Jahrhundert nach Christus, ist eine eindringliche Reflexion über die Art und Weise, wie wir unsere Lebenszeit nutzen–oder verschwenden. Seneca mahnt uns, nicht der Illusion zu erliegen, das Leben sei zu kurz. Ganz im Gegenteil: Wir vergeuden es mit Nebensächlichkeiten, Ablenkungen und falschen Prioritäten.

In this much-anticipated final installment in the Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday makes the case for the virtue on which all other virtues depend. Of all the stoic virtues - courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom - wisdom is the most elusive. This is especially apparent in an age where...

Imagine a world where shadows are reality, where knowledge is but flickering illusions cast upon a wall. This is the chilling vision of Plato's Allegory of the Cave, a philosophical parable nestled within The Republic. More than two millennia old, it remains one of the most haunting explorations of truth, perception, and enlightenment. In this tale, Socrates describes prisoners trapped in a dark cavern since birth, chained so they can see only the wall before them. Behind them burns a fire, casting the silhouettes of unseen objects.

Die APOLOGIE ist die literarische Wiedergabe und Gestaltung der Verteidigungsrede Sokrates vor dem athenischen Gericht im Jahr 399 v.d.Z. durch den philosophischen Schriftsteller Platon.
